The camouflage makes it look like an e36 318ti with a Panamera testing wing. Smallish even tires suggest 4wd though rather than the rumored rwd for this Toyota -Subaru developed coupe.

Razzle Dazzle Ring
You may have noticed that recently there have been a number of prototypes photographed in this odd looking splotchy patterns. The reason of course goes back to WWI submarines. Back then torpedoes were essentially aimed by eye, there was no radar or lasers and painting bizarre patterns on ships was thought to confuse the eye though it was never quite proven to be effective.
Now, can I tie WW I battleships to the "spy"* video of the next generation Z4 testing at the Nürburgring?
Easy, Dazzle Camouflage is related to cubism whose geometric shapes informed pop art of which Roy Lichtenstein was a major exponent and who painted.....wait for it, a BMW! Weeeee!

* that's the best staged "spy" video we have ever seen but that Z4 looks like it's going at a good clip. Rumors have it as a steel roofed convertible, up in size and segment from the present car, an SL fighter?
